MY PRAYER FOR TODAY




Father, I come into Your presence today boldly by the blood of Jesus because You were willing to give Him to rescue me from the domain of darkness.  You have brought me into the kingdom of Your dear Son.  It is through Him that I have redemption, through His blood, even the forgiveness of sin.  Once I was far away, but I have been brought near to You through His blood sacrifice.

Thank You, Father that Jesus, by His own blood, shed on Calvary obtained eternal redemption for me. 

As one of Your Christ followers, I walk in the light because You are the Light.  I have fellowship with other Christ followers and Your blood cleanses me from all unrighteousness.  Cleansed and forgiven! 

Father, You said it is the blood of the Lord Jesus which makes me holy.  I have been made holy, set apart, separated for your good pleasure, purpose, and plan.  I praise You that Your blood purges my conscience from dead works to serve you, for You are the living God. 


I understand that it is through the blood of Your dear Son, that I have been reconciled, (brought near) and that I am at peace with You.  What an amazing truth!  I am at peace with you and I have Your peace ruling in my heart because of the Indwelling Holy Spirit. 

Lord Jesus, it is by your blood and the word of my testimony in You that I overcome evil.  My life is Yours. 

Father, how I praise You that blood was shed for me.  It was a completed once and for all action and through the action I have been given eternal life.  I also have the glorious benefit and security in knowing the truth that I am eternally Yours and no one can snatch me from Your hand.  Kept, cared for, and secured in YOU. 

Colossians 1:13-14, Hebrews 9:12-14, Hebrews 10:19, Hebrews 13:12, Ephesians 2:13, John 10:28, 1 John 1:7, and Revelation 12:11

THOSE SEEING CAN BECOME BLIND

Image
John 9 is the story of the healing of the blind beggar.  Not only is it a marvelous story of the miraculous healing of the man as he is given his sight, but a sad story of the religious of whom Jesus said, "For judgment, I have come into this world, so that the blind will see, and those who see will become blind ." The religious have seen the miracle, even though it has taken place on a Sabbath, and they interview the man and his parents for their stories and understanding. I find it so thrilling that the healed man speaks so articulately and logically with the religious in their "interview" with him.  His statement, " Now that is remarkable!  You don't know where HE comes from, yet HE opened my eyes.  We know that God does not listen to sinners.  He listens to the godly man who does His will.  Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind. If this man were not from God, He could do nothing." What truth he has spoken to the religious wh

REHEARSALS

  I wonder how much time do I give to rehearsing God's goodness and how He has intervened in my life to "save" me from myself?  How alike the Israelites I can be, complaining about what goes wrong, how it affects me, and what I lack.  As a Christ follower, I have the Indwelling Holy Spirit to give me remembrance NOT of my complaining and grumbling, but of a recall of God's faithfulness to me.  It is recorded in Psalms 78 and 106 that " They forgot what He had done, the wonder He had shown them", "They did not remember His power--the day He redeemed them from the oppressor...", "They did not remember Your many kindnesses, and they rebelled by the sea, the Red Sea.", "But they soon forgot what He had done and did not wait for His counsel.", and "They forgot the God who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt...". Contrast with me, God's remembrance: Ps. 106:44-46, "But He took note of their distress

ORDER AND DESIGN

Image
    I do not have OCD, but I do confess that I like order in my home.  Now that I am retired, I am not so much into spotless, but "picked up" and "kinda" clean. (Do not open drawers and closets!) I might go to more trouble when I know I am having company, but otherwise, I remove the clutter that seems to reproduce on its own.   When I began the reading in Genesis in January, I was again taken with the with the orderliness and design of God in creation, and have seen Him use Moses and Aaron to ORDERLY marshal the Israelites to move out of Egypt. How do you move some 600+ males and that is not even wives and children? Animals also?  They have been one year+ out of Egypt, and have been camped at Mt. Sinai where God has given them laws for their spiritual and physical welfare.  God gives Moses the design of the Tabernacle and Moses is able to bring together the workers to complete the Tabernacle.   The clip art at the top is the positioning of the 12 Tribes and the
